New abundance of parking in Noblesville will support Small Business Saturday

All parking at The Levinson remains free until early 2022

Small Business Saturday, Nov. 27, will see increased traffic in all shopping districts, including downtown Noblesville. This year, however, historic downtown Noblesville boasts an additional 199 parking spaces which has been added to the public parking supply through the Levinson project.

“We have all the exciting Small Business Saturday events in place: shopping, carolers, sales, and free gift wrapping,” said Bob DuBois, CEO of the Noblesville Chamber of Commerce. “But it’s wonderful to be able to offer abundant parking at the Levinson parking garage this year.”

The Levinson, located at the corner of 8th Street and Maple Avenue, features one- and two-bedroom apartments as well a covered parking garage with 199 parking spaces for the public. Approximately 100 spaces are earmarked for the apartment residents and clearly designated.

Parking at the Levinson is free for the first four hours and then $2 each hour afterward. However, until the exit gate hardware materials arrive in early 2022, the parking remains free.

“People might not know that the Levinson is open for parking,” said Kate Baker, Executive Director of Noblesville Main Street. “We wanted to bring a bit of fun and goodwill to the parking solutions. So for all of Small Business Saturday, we will be randomly placing gift cards on windshields of select cars. Many of our downtown businesses have donated gift cards for this purpose.”

The gift card incentive will be offered on Small Business Saturday only.

Small Business Saturday starts at 10 a.m. on Saturday, Nov. 27 with several holiday activities planned including:

  • Impactful shopping
  • Decorated storefront windows
  • Discounts and sales
  • Roaming carolers
  • Entertainment in the alleyways
  • Popup shops in the Mainstreet Community Room
  • Free gift wrapping

The day is capped off with the Lighting of the Square ceremony, which begins at 6 p.m. on the courtyard square.

Prior to the Levinson’s opening on Oct. 1 there were 1,197 downtown parking spots. The addition of 199 parking spots at the Levinson and the upcoming county garage will add significantly to the parking supply.
